about me
Hi! My name is Nathaniel Harper, and I’m based in Ottawa, ON. I love dogs, the Vancouver Canucks, films, and all things Formula 1. You can usually find me playing around with some new camera gear or getting active outside with my amazing wife, Jade.
I’ve been working in the video industry for over six years now in many different areas of videography including wedding, corporate and real estate and bring this knowledge and experience to every single project.
Using state of the art camera equipment, drone, and audio gear I deliver my couples a timeless wedding film in 4K resolution with 10 bit colour to provide an authentic time capsule to help them relive their big day.
Classy.
creative.
authentic.
What makes a good wedding video? For some, it’s a collection of aesthetically pleasing shots. For me, it’s storytelling. Video is uniquely positioned to capture the little moments of your day in a way that nothing else can. The way the groom’s hands shake as he tearfully reads off his vows. The way the bride elegantly walks down the aisle. The energy with which the maid of honour hits the dancefloor. I like to let my wedding films capture the flow and the feeling of each and every wedding so that when you watch your film back in the years to come, you won’t just see a collection of nice shots but you’ll be brought right back to the incredible moments and feelings of your wedding day.
Music
Ever see a beautiful wedding video only for it to be ruined by kitschy, boring music? While video is a visual art form, it is also very much influenced by the sounds we hear. Music is one of my favourite elements of my work. I curate the best copyright free music to soundtrack my wedding films, hunting down timeless songs to perfectly soundtrack the mood of your wedding day. Music doesn’t just accompany the video, but enhances it as whole, creating a beautiful visual story.
